Now we are going to make our app, well, more app like. We will add a logo to the bottom of the screen. This will make our app look and feel more like something you would download from Google Play (which it will be) and less like something you simply browse to on the web.
Have ready a small logo perhaps no more than 300 pixels wide and 100 pixels high. Name it logo.png
.
This is nice and easy, follow along carefully and we will soon be done.
